 Description of the problemSince the first week of purchase the car has had trans failure. It has been in and out of the shop at least 4-5 times for repairs with no avail.. The transmission shudders, makes loud grinding noises, stalls, loses power then violently jerks when accelerating. Because of this many times i have narrowly missed hitting other cars causing an accident. I drive everyday with fear and anxiety, this car is downright dangerous. To top things off, suddenly, my rear drivers side door will not stay shut,. It appears that the latch is broken even though i rarely if at all open or close this door. There are so many issues with this car. Ford should be ashamed for this atrocity they brought upon their customers.
